Hi I know next to nothing about cars other then changing a tire. Does anyone know of a site that will let me know if rims from an older car will fit my car. I have a 2011 hyundai accent 3 door hatchback. Looking at rims from a 1999 jetta both are 14 inch and 4 bolt pattern but donno if they match. Will donate what little fg i have for help.

Your car has a 4x100 bolt pattern with a +40mm offset

The Jetta is a 5x100. You'd need a wheel adapter for the jetta wheels to fit your car.

Go to walmart and buy steelies and tires. They'll be dirt cheap for 14" rims and tires and you won't have to go through the hassle.

I looked at a few different sites, and they've all said that 98+ Jetta's are 5x100. So I'm not 100% positive now, unless the persons lying about what car it's on.

You can't tell by the picture. Call the guy and ask him what the bolt pattern is. If it's 4x100, yes.
